CASE STUDY : WIRELESS SOLUTION

Profit Advisory Group Solution: • Extensive Data collection using standard Profit Advisory Group Data Collection processes. Questionnaires were created and sent out to the international sites to gain insight into the current conditions. • Two projects were created to focus on the different category areas for saving opportunities. Project one focused optimizing the spend based on the user usage profiles with each carrier. Project two focused on getting the best terms and conditions with each vendor, including discounts promotions and incentives. • Project one: Using Profit Advisory Group’s proven 3 phased optimization process we were able to identify billing errors, waste and purchase maximization opportunities in the current user population. Through extensive analysis of the billing data we developed an accurate user profile for each of the vendors and from there created a Strategy to right size the plans. • Phase two: Working with the current vendors we were able to insure that the Client was actually receiving “best in Class Pricing” from each of the vendors. • Profit Advisory Group insured that the client had visibility into the usage data of each of the carriers. This was a challenge in the EMEA and ASPAC regions.
